What's new

Is Evans pretty much a lock to make the roster at thispoint?

I am pretty sure it was a make good contract. Meaning he had no guarantee for the 1st year if the team wanted to cut him. I don't believe you can add a 2nd year to the contract unless your willing to guarantee the 1st year. And when that contract was signed it seemed unlikely he would even make the roster.

I'm not saying I wouldn't guarantee the first. Anyway, your point's noted about where we stood with him when we did sign him.

It took three injuries for him to even make the roster. Matthews had a terrible summer league, shooting in the low 30's. I don't think there were many that gave Wesley much thought. IIRC, we were all thinking Paul Harris would be the camp surprise. Wesley came out of nowhere, a product of working his butt off and having the cards fall exactly where they had to.

As for Evans, he was a lock to make the roster when he was drafted. Jazz knew they were getting a project. His summer league performance cemented his spot and his continued development probably means he's not only going to make the team, he's going to get some PT. I'm guessing he'll average 5-8 mins at SF while AK has to fill in at PF behind Millsap. Once Okur comes back, those mins may disappear.
 
...looks like he's doing some kind of hopper dance...so I'd say no! We need fundamentally sound players with athletic ability....not ESPN highlight clowns who are more interested in themselves rather than the team!

Your buffoonery knows no limits.
 
I went to the game Thursday night, Evans will be on the team, no doubt. He can help them against certain teams and brought a TON of energy. I took a bunch of pictures at the game, this one of him is probably my favorite of the night:

Nice photo. And it looks like plenty of people attended the game. I wonder if that's normal for preseason.
